LJ-SEC: (ORIGINALLY POSTED BY dabroots)

Inserted inside the weekly program at my mother's church (part of the Southern Baptist Convention, btw) is a flyer that asks in large, boldface letters: DO YOU BELIEVE MARRIAGE IS BETWEEN ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN? And then it goes on to encourage churchgoers to visit http://www.protectmarriageillinois.org/ and download petitions that, when enough signatures are affixed, will be presented to Illinois state legislators, demanding that they pass laws that will deny the right of non-traditional companions to make their unions legal and binding in the eyes of the State of Illinois. Although the pastor called attention to a flyer being inside the program, he didn't comment on its contents. I gather that most political talk is left to discussion in Sunday School, smaller meetings, etc.
